Slightly related but there's a website somewhere that you can upload your DNA sequence (in a .txt file!) to and it shows you relevant scientific literature. About 50% of those articles for me told me that I was probably going to develop male pattern baldness in my thirties/forties.
Basically, pharmaceutical marketing is causing doctors to be really misinformed and a lot of doctors lack knowledge about updates from the FDA on certain drugs. They often prescribe medication which are more dangerous than others.
I am thinking about creating my own little tool to research drugs before taking them.

There are a few exceptions like BRCA where the risk from certain genotypes is high enough to justify aggressive preventative care.
Doctors have an extremely hard time dealing with complex disorders or even diagnosing them. People go years without a proper diagnosis.
I would love for doctors to just take all the information during first visit and then use some kind of search engine/AI that would go and analyze current literature, new research and suggest things to rule out in a cost effective manner while ruling out things that would need immediate diagnosis/treatment such as cancers.
Patients also need to be tracked if they agree to it, especially if they have a serious disabling condition. Their sleeping habits, diet and everything they do needs to reviewed in detail but just isn't done. Most of these things are self reported and that can be problematic.
